Sylvain

Une des meilleures tables à Montréal. Mets raffinés goûteux & imaginatifs. Cuisson parfaite & présentation impeccable. Superbe décor. Ambiance chaleureuse & peu bruyante. Verrerie, couverts & coutellerie superbes & irréprochables. Service amical, attentionné & rapide. Menu dégustation avec accord mets & vins fortement recommandé. C'est très cher mais ça vaut chaque dollar.
